Evangelism is super important; without it, churches go extinct and people go to hell. Yet, evangelism seem to constantly be (apart from community of goods) the first thing churches drop when they find following Jesus to uncomfortable. It is as if evangelism always hangs lose, even though churches commit suicide if they don’t do it.

I’ve been talking to quite a lot of church leaders about why their congregations never evangelise and they typically give me three different answers. Three brilliant answers. These arguments are so perfect and irrefutable that they completely stun those who are confronted with them, as I show in this comedy sketch:

Of course, I’m joking. These arguments are horribly bad. But there’s one reason for not evangelising that I find acceptable, which I give towards the end of the video. You won’t be able to guess what it is.

Eh… Zombies are constantly after fresh meat but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t put a bullet through their skull. A heavy emphasis on evangelism just makes church feel like MLM and often makes the church unhealthy. Go.. sell… more… JESUS! And if they don’t want it remind them they’ll burn forever… The existence of your church depends on it??? Ugh
